Master Page readOnly or protected fields still open on page 2 of PDF

I have a flowable form that I have added some textfields to the Master Page in order to have them on every page.
I have set the fields to global binding so the form filler can access them from any page. This works fine, the fields populate and the changes to the fields appear on every page.
The problem: I need to lock these fields after submit.
I have added the JavaScript found in the reference material to my submit button that finds and sets the access to all of the body page fields to "readOnly". No problem with this script.
I am not an experienced JavaScript author, so to lock the fields on the master page, I set each field individually to "readOnly".
This works great on page 1 of the final PDF, the fields are locked.
On page 2, however, the fields are still accessible. In fact, changing the values in the page 2 fields also change the values in the page 1 locked fields.
I have tried using the relative SOM as well as the absolute SOM for changing the property but no change in results.
I have also tried changing the property from "readOnly" to "protected" with no change in the results.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks Paul,
I wish it was that easy.
I only have one Master Page for this form.
The idea is the content could expand and force the form to flow to that second page, or in this case, I've added enough form fields to cause the form to flow to the next page.
I am including a sample form. The text field at the top of the form is on the master page. After hitting the submit button on the bottom of page 2, this form field will be readOnly, at least on page one. If you look at the same field on the top of page two of the PDF, it will be open.

Pages 5 document will no longer open in pages 5

I upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago and afterwards, I had both Pages '09 and Pages 5 in my dock, instead of one of them being in the applications folder. They are both still in my dock. I have looked briefly at Pages 5 and determined that, at this time, I prefer Pages '09. All of my documents were created in Pages '09 and now they will no longer open in Pages '09. (Some will, and I don't know what the difference is between the ones that will and the ones that won't) When I try to open one, it either opens, no problem, or I get the message "The required index.xml file is missing." This message is in a rectangle with an icon representative of Pages '09 (the inkwell). Since it has this icon, I'm assuming that I was trying to open it in the Pages '09 version, which is what I intended o do. Since this didn't work, I tried to right click and "Open with Pages.app (4.0.5)" and got the same message. I was a little afraid to try to open it in Pages 5, since I've heard rumors that this could ruin the document. I would like to be able to use either of the apps but, since I apparently can't do that, I gathered my courage and opened a document in Pages 5. Everything seemed to be okay, so I opened a couple more. One of them, I even was able to edit with no problem. But when I tried to open it again hours later, I got an error message saying ". . . can't be opened because it is from an "unidentified developer". What's going on here? The only people involved in this document are Apple and me. What "unidentified developer" are they talking about? And why was it fine, then a few hours later it was not accessible? If I'm forced to use only Pages 5, I guess I can live with that, but it seems as though I will have to live in constant fear that, at any time, my document will not open. I've read about a lot of other people who are having problems, too, but not this particular one. I'm at a loss and, like everybody else, I have important documents that I need access to. I'm using an iMac and 10.9.4. What to do?? I need my stuff!

1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
Turn off auto-update here:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
They point to where the apps really are which is:
For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

"One or more field types are not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these fields" while accessing website pages

We have a publishing website in SharePoint 2010. There are total 4 environments - Development, Test, Stage and Production. For some enhancements, we had to create some new lists and libraries. When we moved changes from Development to Test environment, everything
worked fine. Relevant lists and libraries in lower environments were saved as templates (in .stp format) including content, imported to higher environment, lists/libraries were created in higher environment using imported templates.
Things worked fine from Development to Test. We did similar exercise from Test to Stage environment. Now in Stage, when we access some pages, we get error message - "One or more field types are not installed
properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these fields.". ULS logs don't tell which exact list has got problems.
On searching for this error, I got many articles that explain how this could happen when we migrate from SharePoint 2007 (MOSS) to 2010. Though our case different (as all our environments are in 2010), we still tried following steps.
De-activate 'SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure' Site Collection feature
Go to https://site-name/relationships%20list/allitems.aspx. This is a hidden list. Delete this list.
Re-activate 'SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure' Site Collection feature.
Make sure that new hidden list with one item is created at https://site-name/relationships%20list/allitems.aspx
However, this didn't help as we are still getting same error message. Appreciate if someone can suggest how this issue can be resolved.
Following are ULS logs:
Unable to execute query: Error 0x81020014
One or more field types are not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these fields.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: One or more field types are not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these fields.

Hi Shrishail ,
Some time this issue occurs if you have any custom filed types in the list or library and that field type is not installed on server .
Can you please check that if you are having any custom field types column on the list and library and if that is the case you need to install that field type on the server. sometimes it happens if field types are not properly deployed / Installed then
you have to uninstall that field types (retract solution) and deploy it again.
Thanks,
Ujjwal

Pages 3.0.3 will not open in Pages 5.5.2

I just purchased a new iMac and Pages documents (version 3.0.3) will not open in Pages 5.5.2 in my new iMac.
Is there a way to open them? I am using OS X 10.10.2. TIA

Pages v5 dropped support for Pages '08, and .RTF documents. If you are running Pages '08 v3.0.3 on Yosemite, just export the documents to Word .doc, and these will open in Pages v5.5.2. I have found that a Pages '08, or '09 document uploaded to the zamzar site can also be converted to Word .doc/docx for free. They will send you an email in a few moments of the conversion with a pointer to the Word document to download.
Note. You do not need to sign up on the Zamzar site to upload, convert, and download the converted document. Process just took me under 2 minutes. They will store documents for 1 day.

How to create a field in an OAF page which sums two fields in the same page.

Hi,
In the HRMS appraisal page, I have two fields in different regions.
1. One field shows the total score of the competencies.
2. Another field shows the total scores of the objectives.
The problem with the appraisal total score is it returns only the rating level id. (It does not take decimal values)
Hence I want to add the above two fields which is displayed in the same page and show as a new field in the top of the page as the final appraisal score.
[Something similar to what is mentioned in the metalink document 1315431.1 ]
We are in 11.5.10.2.
I am new to OAF and have no idea as to how to achieve the above step. Can anyone guide me in doing it?
regards

Hi,
Went through the steps to do a VO substitution.
But normally in all the examples given the page will belong to the application where we are modifying.
Eg. in this case the "about this page" shows /oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/webui/NotifDetailsPG
This is coming under fnd top where all the appraisal VOs and other pages comes under PER_TOP.
Should I bring all the files from FND_TOP of the server to my PC where jdev is installed.
I have already taken all the files under $PER_TOP to my PC.
regards

Won't open new page when I click bookmark, instead changes pages EVEN THO PREFERENCES SET TO OPEN NEW PAGES

Firefox keeps on changing pages, even yanking minimized pages back onto the screen and changing them, even though I have Firefox preferences set to always open new pages to accommodate links on a page or bookmarks.
I don't want Firefox to tamper with any pages, period. If I have a pages minimized, no way should Firefox be yanking that page up back onto the screen because it's "too lazy" to open up a new page to accommodate a bookmark or link clicked on.
It's extremely aggravating to click a link on a page, get a new page then, when I click the page to close it I find no page underneath, indicating that Firefox had changed the original page rather than open up a new page automatically to accommodate the link, etc.
What's the point of me in Firefox preferences setting it up for Firefox to open up new pages automatically when afterwards it doesn't?

Perhaps try the add-on Tab Mix Plus. It has a feature that you can force every link to open in a new tab if you like:
* http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Links (description of options - see "Force to open in new tab")
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ (install page)
I don't know whether it has any effect on bookmarks. You can open those in a new window by holding Shift or in a new tab by holding Ctrl when clicking.

Why do html page links on iweb suddenly start opening the pages at bottom not top?

Why do html pointer to pages open those pages at the bottom not the the top on a web page I am working on with iWeb. Software seems a bit flakey as sometimes if I close the site down and then reopen it all is ok. Any ideas? Thanks. Sean

Okay, I figured out the problem with those certain links not working on www.calgaryyouthrally.com. The grey background was apparently covering the links somehow on the first and last pages of the site (due to its becoming enlarged in IE8). I made some changes and took care of that problem.
But, the enlarged grey background is bugging me. It is acceptable in Firefox and Safari. But in IE8 the grey extends well beyond the actual size that I made it. The grey shape with the white picture frame around it is what I have made in iWeb. But in IE8 the grey is extending well beyond the white picture frame border. What can I do to fix this? Any ideas? Again, the site is www.calgaryyouthrally.com.
Thanks!

If I get Pages for my iPhone, will it open Mac Pages '06 files?

I have an iPhone 4. No cell service. I have been experimenting with LogMeIn and Cubby on my iPhone and 2 old (2006) laptops. One is a MB and one a MBP. I have Pages '06 on my laptops, and OSX 10.6.8. I can use LogMeIn and a WIFI connection to view old Pages documents on the iPhone, but I want to use Cubby directly if possible. When I try to open a Pages document, it lets me know it can not. So I thought perhaps I would get Pages for the iPhone. But if it won't open Mac Pages '06 files, there is no point.
I suppose I could print each of my Pages documents on my Mac to pdf. Then I could view them in Cubby. And instead of $10 for a version of Pages for my iPhone that may not open the old stuff anyway, I would just have to spend a lot of time printing all the files I want.
What do you think?

Check the last two bullets here. This comes from the Pages app description in the iTunes Store:
Based on this, I believe Pages '06 is not directly supported, but you could use some intermediate representation (e.g., PDF) to import your work.

Pages 08 docs 'too old' to open in Pages 5.

It tells me to first save them in Pages 09 but I don't have it!
What's more, I can no longer get it because Pages 5 has replaced it in the App Store!
A bit confused. Any ideas? I'm willing to buy Pages 09, even though that's ridiculous, but how?

Same problem here. A temporary fix is to export Pages 08 documents as Word files, and then open the Word versions in Pages 5.
I saw an Apple genius about this problem and she gave me Pages 09 at no charge, but also said there's no solution, presently, except to do as the warning message says - save them in 09 first and then reopen them into Pages 5. To my knowledge, there's no way to convert them en masse, so it has to be done individually.

Pages '09 .template files cannot be opened in pages 5

I have an older iMac and just bought a new Macbook. I have been having problems (seems like I'm not the only one) with the new Pages. Mostly, even on my iMac, I've had problems opening files. I always get an error that says, "'X file' can't be opened". Somehow I got to some of my older files, I think by converting them to .docx files. Now, I've purchased some resume templates that came in different formats. I can open the .docx files but the formatting gets screwed up. They came with pages .template files (that I assume were created in Pages '09) that I cannot open.
Do I have any options besides trying to redo all of the formatting (defeating the purpose of buying templates) in Pages 5 which is a ****** application with ****** formatting tools?
Can I get Pages '09 back
Can Apple please stop trying to oversimplify things to the point of making them useless?
Apple has really dropped the ball with this one. My frustration with pages alone is almost enough to make me wish I had purchased a different laptop. Microsoft Word '98 was a better word processor.
Thanks,
Jared
P.S. the text editor in this forum is better than Pages 5

We largely agree and have been recommending users stick with Pages '09 until a third party replaces Pages with something like Serif's Affinity Publisher next year.
If you migrated your Mac over from the old one it should have transferred Pages '09.
Can you reinstall from original installers? Just make sure to update iWork '09 to v4.3.
Peter
PS Go to the App Store and add your rating review to the mounting displeasure. Where I am the vast majority is giving it one or two stars. ie We hate it.

How to refer the 1st page's 2nd text field from the 2nd page in Java scrip?

Hello
I am developing an VISITOR info interactive form with webdynpro ABAP, its with 2 pages. Their heirarchy is,
VISITOR_form
    |
    |
    |------Page_1
    |            |
    |            |
    |            |------Text_Field_A_1
    |            |
    |            |------Text_Field_A_2
    |
    |------Page_2
                 |
                 |
                 |------Text_Field_B_1
                 |
                 |------Text_Field_B_2
Now, i have selected the 'Text_Field_B_1' of page_2 and writing the Java script, my requirement is; If Page_1's 'Text_Field_A_2' has a value of "Value_ABCD", THEN the 'Text_Field_B_1' of page_2 should be 'readOnly'. Pls let me know Wht is the Java script for this requirement?

Script is
if ( Page_1.Text_Field_A_2.rawValue == "Value_ABCD" )
Text_Field_B_1.access = "readOnly";
It can be written at the form:ready event of Text_Field_B_1.
Thanks,
Aravind

Pages 09 (4.3) won't open iCloud Pages 5 docs

Hi all. I'm running Pages 09 (4.3) on my MacBook Pro and Pages 5 on my iPad. The Mac won't open documents created on the iPad: it tells me I need a newer version. When I open the App Store, it says 'installed' and there's no option for a newer version (is there one?).
Any ideas? Thanks,
Aidan

If you are running the newest iOS version of Pages on your iPad, then only Pages 5.0 (Mavericks) can open those documents on your Mac.
Apple designed it this way.
Your only option is to EXPORT from your iPad version of Pages into a format from which you can then IMPORT on your Mac running pages 4.3.

Hotspot login cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server.

I am trying to connect to a public wifi network. My iPad connects marvoulesly. My iPhone not so much. I have an iPhone 4 and everytime I go to connect, it goes to a pop up page where I'm supposed to click a link to adhere to their TOS. When I get the pop up page I get "Hotspot login cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server"
I've reset the network settings and nothing changed. Same error message. Any tips or tricks to fix this? I'm laid up on bed rest in the hospital and would really rather that I not use all my data minutes...
Thanks!

Updated to iOS6 on an iPhone 4 this morning, and now when I attempt to connect to my work wireless, it connects for a moment then attempts to popup some login page (I sometimes get the hotspot login error you've mentioned) and because the page doesn't exist I can't get connected to the wireless netowrk.
What the heck have apple broken in this update?
Why when joining a normal wireless network is my phone even going near a Login page? What is this and how do I disable it?
Oh, and I'm posting here because your suggestions of disabling the Wi-Fi and Cellular data netowkrs doesn't solve the problem.
[Edit: seems while typing this leaving the cellular data disabled, it's now letting my join wireless - seems to be some timeout on it fixing the issue - I'd still like to know what this login page is it's attempting to locate is for.]

Inserting pages before pg 1, document then opens to old page 1 (XI Pro)

Dear Support Team,
I am baffled. I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.2. Here is the scenario that is driving me crazy:
I open a multi-page pdf document (titled Report).
I then view the thumbnails of that document.
I find another pdf document (titled Charts) and drag it unopened from my desktop and place it before the thumbnail of the first page of my opened document (Reports).
All seems well, all pages of the Charts pdf were inserted before the first page of the Reports pdf and are showing correctly in thumbnail view.
However, if I close the pdf and reopen it, it will automatically open to the old first page (what used to be the first page of Reports), let's say page 5.
So, I have to go to the file properties and change the "open to page 5" and make it say "open to page 1"
This happens every time I insert a pdf document or even just a pdf page from another document before page 1 in my open document.
It's like Acrobat keeps making the document open to the old page 1 no matter how many pages I insert before the old page 1.
I just want to insert pages and have it open to the new page 1 without having to go to the file properties menu every time.
Can anyone help me?

Hello,
Thanks for your time. My acrobat preferences were already set to disable the restore last view settings, so that didn't work.
I've done a bunch of testing since you responded and have discovered that this issue only happens when I insert pages into a pdf document created by our office scanner (Konica Minolta bizhub C452). When I scan a document, it creates a pdf. If I then take that pdf and try to insert another document or page before page 1, the document properties immediately change to "open to page 5" or whatever the original page 1 used to be.
I'm not sure what's going on here. I tried copying the scanned pdf to a different location/drive, and still no luck. This is a bummer because we work with scanned documents so often and frequently need to insert and rearrange pages. For now, whenever I insert pages before page 1, I promptly go to the document properties and change the "open to page" to page 1. Very annoying.
